Early life[]

Clint Morris is the elder of two children of Robert and Heather Morris. Morris spent his teenage years working at drive-in theaters, video stores and at radio stations, where he would begin his career as a broadcast journalist. Morris attended North Shepparton Secondary College in Shepparton. He was a finalist valedictorian at college, graduating with a bachelor of business. He also holds advanced diplomas in Advertising and Marketing, and a certificate in Commercial Radio announcing.^{[citation needed]}

Journalist career[]

Morris began his career as a radio announcer at several Victorian radio stations in the mid-1990s. Morris said of his entrance into journalism:

I believe I was about 16 or 17 when I started reviewing for local radio, which led to a regular gig as a radio announcer for a few years, if only because I was the only film fanatic in country Victoria that knew his Cimino's from his Friedkin's. No matter which station I ended up at, I’d always end up saddling the film reviewing job. I didn't complain. I even got to see Sliver a few days before release. But the experience on radio led to some reviewing work with a couple of newspapers and magazines and a TV show. By the time I was 21 I was working in marketing and publicity, but I never let the film reviewing go completely.^[2]

Filmmaking career[]

After working on a contract basis on several studio pictures as a producer and screenwriter, Morris decided to officially enter the film-making world, joining actor and filmmaker Christopher Showerman to form Shorris Film, a Los Angeles-based independent film production company. The duo's first film was Between the Sand and the Sky.^[3] Morris went on to produce such films as Complacent and Radio America.^[4] He co-produced in 2014.^{[citation needed]}
